As an offspring of the Great Migration, this book meant a lot to me. I will forever be indebted to Isabel Wilkerson and the three individuals who this great work follows for painting a picture of the South that my grandparents and great-relatives left behind. I'd highly recommend this work for anybody who wants to dedicate their time to reading a well put together work of non-fiction.

Makes a lot of American history make more sense and provides a foundation for understanding current race relations. A must read for us all, Black and White.
